Doncaster man dies in road crash tragedy as man is charged over fatal smash

Jordan Sheehy was travelling in a Vauxhall Mokka on the B6388 High Lane at Ridgeway, Derbyshire when the collision took place just after 1.40pm on Saturday 1 July.

The 26-year-old died at the scene, and his family are being supported by Family Liaison Officers.

The other vehicle involved in the collision was a Volkswagen Tiguan, Derbyshire Police said.

Officers are keen to hear from anyone who witnessed the collision as well as anyone who has any dashcam footage.

A 30-year-old man has now been charged with causing death by dangerous driving, aggravated vehicle taking, failing to stop after a collision and driving without insurance or the correct licence.
